After writing 9 #scifi #books in a row, it's weird to be #writing another detective novel. There's something blithely ordinary about a story wherein most of the world building is already done. Interestingly, when you get past that, stories are the same: character, relationships, plot. #EddieDaley2

This is part wherein I remind you that should AI become "conscious" it will not have become "sentient," as the latter is about emotional rather than intellectual awareness. Thus, we will be developing a consciousness devoid of empathy, or, by definition, a psychopath. Yay.💀 Morons and their toys.

This is a #photograph of a thistle. The #photo has a low truth value, which makes it #art. #WeekPforPink #AlphabetChallenge #bloomscrolling #photography #flowers

Street photographer's confession: Every time I see a pretentious, ill-informed statement, like, "B&W #photography is more realist than color," or "I focus on the 'Decisive Moment,'" I want to punch them in the face. I thought I'd finally address it, because it bugs the hell outta me. 1/4

I've often believed that energy given is returned. Once we learn to free ourselves from toxicity, shielding our lives from narcissists and predators, we are free to cast the energies we wish to receive. Thank you for yours. #RealStreet #Photography #EastCoastKin #NYC

In the remote, mountainous regions of northern Vietnam, girls from ethnic minority groups struggle to access education. In Pakistan, young Kalash girls face similar challenges, where a lack of female teachers, scarce schools, and early marriage hinder their growth and learning.

After a 55-year photographic journey, I have tens of thousands of images. So as not to be obnoxious, I try *really* hard to avoid posting too many shot. So forgive me, but finding the #Glow is a thing I do. #BlueskyArtShow #photography #Sunlight #EastCoastKin

Shit they try to make us eat, #1. 1. Fish-free tuna - what the hell is fish-free fish? How about I pay you in cash-free cash? 2. Tiny shrimp - Naw, too big for me. I'm holding out for the dwarf embryonic shrimp. Fool, I ain't eating your bait.

Just a thought for all you non-retired working stiffs. Unless I have a doctor's appointment, I have no idea what day it is. You may now return to your previously scheduled work slogs. (That's not me, below. But it might be; you don't know.) #StreetPhotography #Retriement #EastCoastKin

After years of idleness, Eddie Daley is back in the game. Unlike Eddie, I'm rusty at this. The problem with restarting an artistic endeavor is finding your former flow without being constrained by your prior limitations. Cranking out words is easy. Knowing what to omit is the hard part. #writing

After not having written anything for 5 years, I'm back at it. I'm writing the sequel to one of my books just for my wife. I'm not going to publish it, but I still intend to make it at least as good as my other books. Number 20. We'll see how I do. #Writing #Novels
